Let's see your best Spurs! I have never killed anything over 1.25. My fiancés first bird ever was 1 7/8. Whooped me from day one. Let's see your best Spurs!

Here is hers next to a 2 year old I shot the same year.

I do mine off my bench grinder. I cut, clean and shape then I use 35% hydrogen peroxide (only on the bone, never spur) to whiten. At first I tried clear nail polish and didn't like the look... then a clear lacquer, same deal didn't like the look.

Now I use a sewn cotton polishing wheel on the grinder and a (bone) buffing compound I like how it brings out the color, does not look "fake" glossy they just have a clean sheen.

Great information on how to clean em up! I've got my rope of Spurs at home I'm gonna clean up with your method! And yeah I love seeing those ancient limb hangers! Spurs over an inch and a half are true monsters and amaze me

That wasn't mine. I think it was like a $5 rebate check from something. Can't remember. Definitely not mine.

All I did to polish was take a fingernail pad and then use clear coat finger nail polish
